Help! Weight gain probs. Snack suggestions.
Dametris replied to goldenbarbie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
OMG! I'm 2yrs postop VSG and your statement hit my situation right on target. I'm starting my reset this week, I've been luck to have only gained 11lbs in the past year but I don't want this to get out of control. I didn't want to loose any more weight after having my plastic surgery of fat transfer so I begin eating more. Thanks for sharing & keep us posted🤩 Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -

Did I Stretch My Stomatch?
Dametris replied to KeileeWilliams's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It can happen, What I've done is go back to the basics doing 3 protien shakes a day with a high protien low carb meal once a day for 5days. Some call this a sleeve reset, but it works trust me. And remeber to keep your bowels moving[emoji41] HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:177(03/17/18) GW:185🙄 -

I did, I began taking 10,000 biotin a day at 3months POSTOP but it didn't make a difference. My hair loss is just slowing down I'm almost 10 months POSTOP HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:177(03/17/18) GW:185🙄

I hated it! I purchased 6 bottles pre surgery and I still have 5 bottles in my fridge ( I'm almost 1 year post surgery [emoji23]) I did homemade bone broth after surgery as my clear protien. Plus keep in mind your not gonna take in much with exception of water & broth the first few weeks [emoji41] HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:177(03/17/18) GW:185🙄

I only told my hubby & 5 others, People are so judgemental therefore to prevent me from loosing my cool I told only a select few. When I'm at family functions or eating with friends I just say I'm managing my portion control (which is true) HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:177(03/17/18) GW:185🙄

Thanks, my bmi at my GW would've been 29, but I now have a bmi of 27. I've tried not to focus on the #'s but actually how I look and feel. HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:177(03/17/18) GW:185🙄

I never swayed from my surgeons instructions thru 8 weeks (that is when I went to regular diet). I start my day with a premier protein shake, I eat @ 5 small meals per day that consist of high protein low /no carbs & I only drink water adding 100% cranberry juice (for flavor) I have yet to drink any alcohol since pre-op 5/15. I dont eat much red meat & I don't eat fried foods, breads, rice, etc I have an elliptical exercise machine at home because I hate the gym atmosphere & I try to use it at least 2 times per week for an hour (but i have not been consistent). I have purchased some free weights and a jumping rope but I have yet to start using them. My weight loss is mostly from my diet and liquid intake hardly any exercise, & I have minimal excess skin.

I Want To See Before & After Pics! (Cont'd)
Dametris replied to LilMissDiva Irene's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I have only 1 regret not doing it sooner! My days after surgery where ok not much pain only issue was the gas it lasted a week but that was my only issue. HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:186(11/04/17) GW:185🙄 -

We must relearn our new tummies [emoji41] prior to VSG I loved salads, but POSTOP I can't tolerate salad this frustrated me because I waited & longed for a salad after surgery but now I can no longer enjoy it[emoji41] HW: 247 VSG:6/1/17 CW:186(11/04/17) GW:185🙄
